I think the corpse effect has merit. Being near a bunch of corpses when you're totally not used to that won't kill you, but it might well send you insane or catatonic, either of which is death if you're looking to evade elite security forces.

I think it's worse, dtd. The twenty chapter (US) version is perfect. I read the 21 chapter one, saw the movie, thought that was a heaps better ending, then read about the two versions and ****, and yeah... The 21st chapter is kinda lame.

Not so much a circle-jerk, at least when I was active at ModDB, the perception was that TNM was written by PlanetDeusEx, for PlanetDeusEx, similarly to how Hammy-bob Mod was written by ModDB, for ModDB.

This must have had a positive impact somewhere along the line - not many mod projects ever see a team of ten dedicated developers, let alone when they're just starting out. Of course, the negative is that people thought it would be a joke, and even worse, a joke they weren't in on.

At the end of the day though, you guys created a mod that is unique in scope and quality, proved the mod community is capable of professional production values, without taking the usual 'indie' shortcuts. It is well known, respected, and considered one of, if not, the best in its class by the majority of those who have played it.

It is one of the most important mods to come out since the first wave of quality mods, and it's something you can all be proud of for the rest of your lives. Congratulations.

Whoever made this poll really has a good understanding of the basic structure of the world. HINT: seasons are different on either side of the equator, not the meridian, which has no real function geographically, and was only created for political reasons.
